PMS
One of my pet peeves is about PMS. PMS means pre-menstrual syndrome, meaning IT ONLY HAPPENS ~ A WEEK OR SO BEFORE A GIRL'S PERIOD AND NO OTHER TIME. BEFORE, not DURING. So when a girl is PMSing; she is NOT on her period yet. Everytime a girl is being moody or "bitchy," it may NOT be because she is PMSing. NOT EVERY GIRL gets PMS. Males do NOT have PMS. EVERYONE gets moody; the young, the old, the males, the females. Just because a girl is moody doesn't mean she is PMSing. And it especially doesn't mean a boy is PMSing, because that is just not possible, because boys don't even have menstrual cycles. So stop using "s/he's PMSing" the wrong way.
Also, I really resent the way people act about the whole menstrual cycle thing. If a person goes through a girl's purse and finds a pad or tampon, they might tease her or laugh or say, "It's that time of the month, eh?" That is so immature. Every girl has a period. There's nothing funny about it. It is painful for a lot of girls. It is especially painful for me. So whenever someone makes jokes about it, I hope they get reincarnated into a girl their next life so they can experience the PAIN we girls feel EVERY MONTH.
Sexism really irritates me if you haven't noticed. Girls and boys are equal in every way except for physical characteristics and sex organs. If there is ANY gender that deserves to be held in higher regard, it is the woman, because she can do anything a man can do, AND she has the gift of bearing children and has to put up with the PAIN of it every month. GIRLS DESERVE MORE RESPECT THAN THEY'RE GETTING. Having periods and the child producing ability is a GIFT. If it weren't for women, humanity would become extinct. Men only exist to provide variety in the gene pool. And I have a book to back that statement up if any of you beg to differ. Women can reproduce with preserved semen in a test tube, and female lizards can reproduce asexually when natural conditions are tough. So you men out there, don't think you're worth any more than women. You're not. You know how most men only get with women to have sex with her? It's because that is all men were made for. Sex. After the female becomes pregnant, the male is no longer of any use. That is why some female species eat the males after (and sometimes during) sex. Put THAT on your plate and eat it!
